I just purchased E350e AMG Dynamics and your tips & tricks are very useful. I didn’t know most of them except the HOLD feature. Thanks again and looking forward to your next vid. Subscribed!
On Uk AMG GLC 2.2 diesels the HOLD display is at the bottom of the main instrument binnacle below Speedo. That was a brilliant tip which after 5 years of ownership of 3 of the same models I never knew it existed - makes traffic light waits so much more relaxing 👍👍👍
I've had my A class for 4 years, I didn't know 3 of those tricks. Wow! A huge thanks.

Hi Inffzy99, Amazing good to hear! Glad you liked them!
The “HOLD” feature has become one of my favorites. I can truly relax at a stop light, and take my foot off the brake. I still tend to keep my foot ready for the brake, but I have never had a problem with it. Just a light pressure on the gas pedal releases the break and you go. It is also good fun for a quick start with heavier pressure on the gas. BTW, I also have a Sprint Booster that increases the throttle response that makes quick starts even easier and more fun.

Hi Night Fall, Nope not at all! By pressing down harder (when stationary) you’re basically letting the car know you want the brake to stay on. The car’s computer will show HOLD on the screen and it will not move whatsoever. As soon as you wish to go just lightly press the accelerator 👍🏼
*I had a W246 B Class 2014 and the HOLD function it worked a treat, however now replaced car with the current Model B200CDi AMG W247 and it works but needs 'more of a knack' Also the Cruise Control (on Stalk) on W246 Models I preferred to the rather small buttons on Steering Wheel on the latest series. **3:00** The Keyless Entry - my car has a tracking device (Standard) to identify where the car is and with the Mercedes ME App will alert you if car moved and show its precise location. However no one wants their car stolen so a good tip to turn this off if parking in a Public Space. Regarding 'Favorites' the MBUX will store and recall your last destinations, home, work address but also if you have in your Contacts the address of a person you can simply say "Navigate to Joe Bloggs' and it will do so with an option of routes.*

Nick, there is an even faster way to change a music track while you are on navigation menu or any menu. on the same area of the touchpad were you click to change track with a pop up menu. You do not have to click. simply SWIPE your finger from left to right on top of touchpad (Same area were you click to change tracks) but no click. just simply SWIPE from left to right to go to NEXT track or from RIGHT to left to go to Previous. It is less distracting than the pop up menu!

Hi Nick. Great video! Will definitely use the hold feature😀 Any idea if you can always disable Lane Assist? This has become a daily first thing to disable when I enter my CLA 2020..

Hi Brent, Yes that HOLD feature is great, I use it everyday! With the new CLA, it comes with Active Lane Keeping Assist as standard and yes as you’ve noticed, it does come on automatically every time you turn it on. As it’s a safety feature it can’t be turned of permanently. It’s designed to stop you leaving the lane if you accidentally drifted to one side of the road, however if you indicate when you know you’re going to go over a line in the road, it switches it off temporarily so you won’t have that jolt when it brings you back into lane. Hope that helps!

Yours are very simple and informative, NOT from the original manuals. Question, two out of ten times I can't lock the door with my thumb on the door sensor, same on other doors.

@npoleary
2 ай бұрын
Hey thanks for the suggestion! Blind Spot Assist is enabled by default on cars that have it as far as I’m aware. Sadly I only started my KZread channel in 2020 so have limited coverage of models prior to that. I’m not sure my local dealer has any models in from 2018. I haven’t been there for a little while so don’t know what years of car they have in stock. Pretty sure on that year of car though, both of those things are controlled on the steering wheel. Using left/right buttons on the steering wheel keep pressing right until you get to settings. Then look in there for Blind Spot Assist and then also under I think Convenience, this is where you find mirror folding, again if it has it. Hope that helps!

Hi Nick I have just bought a 2015 S350lwb and I wondered if it is possible to illuminate the steering wheel controls at night as I can’t see them. Help please. Thanks

Hey Richard, really sorry I can’t remember if the buttons actually do light up at night time on the steering wheel in that model, been a while since I’ve driven that one at night! Best thing to do is chat with your local Mercedes & they’ll be able to advise if it did have that functionality.
Hi Nick! Random question…. I bought a second hand 2018 C Class Saloon and the Sat Nav needs updating. Please could you tell me what I have to do to update it. Thank you.

Hey Penelope Butler, Depends on your model and multimedia system to be honest. I have made a video about it covering as many systems as I can 🤓 kzread.info/dash/bejne/fqGfzteGca-Xeso.html
Hello Nick, thanks for the tips, they're really cool. One question though. Does the packing assist on E300 apply to all E300 Mercedes, specifically 2017 models?

Hi Ifeanyi Ozoani, Yes if you have a park assist button in the middle of the car then it'll do everything in my video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/d4qNzJJ-l8q0aZM.html All Mercedes-Benz made after approx 2014 that have parking sensors fitted from factory can pretty much do the parking assist with the exception of SLC models as that one is slightly different.

Hi Do you know if the Hold feature will work on 2018 C Class (Premium)?

Hi Imran, Yes it will! It works on all modern Mercedes-Benz vehicles and is so useful!
The hold feature is the most useful thing, especially for city driving. Is it exclusive to MB?

Hi ThewaylCit, Yeah so useful in the city! Other manufacturers have their own versions of a “hold” feature but I think Mercedes & Porsche only have this via the brake pedal.

Hi Neven, Mercedes cars always have at least one of those on the screen. There is way to make it disappear from the screen. If it’s illuminated green, then it’s on but if it’s greyed out then it’s off.
Hi Nick how do you get internet radio working please

Hey Russell, basically you need to set up a subscription for internet in the car. I have a tutorial on it here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/f3yg0LCFdNOvepc.html Just bear in mind if you’re only wanting to use internet radio, it will more than likely be easier to stream it off of your phone and Bluetooth it to the car that way. Sharing Internet from the car to devices like a tablet or phone etc is it’s main function but as an added extra Internet Radio can also be utilised too.
Swipe steering wheel touchpad up or down to change tracks. Lot easier

Hi Abdullah, Really sorry hard to tell on here as there are lots of specification options on S-Class’s. Might be best to speak to your local dealer and they can take your reg or chassis to check your exact spec. I’m sure it can be done for you!
I have an 2017 e class coupe w213. The first tip with the recirculating button doesn’t work on mine? I have the same cockpit and everything 🤔

Hey WiseEyes, hmmm sadly I know it does vary from model to model and country to country so isn’t available on everything! 🙁 If you get in touch with your local dealership, they’ll be able to confirm for sure if it can do it or not
HI , …I’m have the new CLA 200 amg premium plus . How to do i know if i can open the boot with a kick action ? Should it come with this ?

Hi Kyle, spec can vary from model to model. Most commonly it’s called “Hands Free Access” on spec sheets. If you have the key in your pocket, stand at the back of the car, and kick your foot under the back of the car and then bring it back out fairly quickly in line with your Mercedes badge.
I have a 2021 GLC300, I tried to do the Hold on the brakes but it won't. also on the key tricks, to open the Windows from the key unlock.

Hey Fe Sotto-Olegario, Sorry it’s hard to tell where everyone’s based in the KZread comments! 😅 If you’re in the UK, I’m pretty you should have it! Never known a modern Mercedes not to have the hold feature.
I had tried many times of the hold recirculation button all window up but Somehow nothing moves any idea?

Hey Drowsy Fong, Sadly it’s not available on all models of Mercedes. Because there are so many variants and variations in countries it’s most commonly best just to try it.
I tried this recirc function and not working on my GLE 2021- did it change?

Don’t think so, not from what I’ve seen. Are you based in the UK? I only ask as spec can vary so much from country to country! It may not be available... :/
